I was commenting on the conclusion you drew that Diggs is going to be released which of course you have ZERO facts to back that up now other than your own conjecture. That is “jumping to conclusions”.

Up to now, no one on this board knows what will happen in this case so I don’t think it’s in anyone’s interest to presume anything.

But say what you want…

Diggs wasn't going to be here next year at those numbers anyway.


You're giving him a raise?

If he's here then I'll say I was wrong. But for now I'm comfortable with my prediction. Regardless if whatever happened with this woman.
 
Sure seems like a money grab, I sure dont know that for sure. However the hopefully the text messages released are not too terrible, Thast the part I would worry about more.
 
That facts were released, all of it. Nothing else remains. Diggs team wanted police report not released because it had personal info including his phone number, address and other details the public had no business knowing. The report now seems to have been deleted from the internet and on one wants to repost it. There is no evidence, there is clear motive for one side and it is not Diggs. I can win this case.
I don’t know. Jurors need to see and hear more than just one side of a story. If she has an eyewitness or photos/medical report of injuries that can be enough, but don’t think she has that.

Well that will never be known, you can't just pretend the incident didn't happen.
He has played at 25 million dollar level, he would've been back and still might.

that is why she waited two weeks, because now there are no signs of any altercation. I'm sorry but this appears to be another money grab!
 
My biggest concern is if this happened on the 2nd why wait two weeks to file the report. I mean she could have been in shock on the 2nd and gave it a day or so to think about and talk with family/friends, two weeks seems like a long time. I would like to learn more about any conversations between parties from the 2nd to the 16th.
The negative view - Because that's what the lawyer told you to do so you can say the bruises healed.

Let me further clarify.

Diggs was coming back to ask for more money.

I thought we all understood this?
 
Innocent until proven guilty. There have been plenty of cases where athletes are targeted or situations get exaggerated because of the potential for a payout, so I hope this turns out not to be true.

I also hope the Patriots did their own due diligence before publicly stating that they stand behind Diggs.
 
AB was really crazy though.
The fact she waited 2 weeks and didn't think to take photos of the "redness on her chest" leaves zero evidence and leaves a 100% he said/she said. Which is why in the end she just gets paid and signs a confidentiality.
He was/is crazy, but that doesn't mean he did what he was accused of. That's the problem I have with this "me too" movement.
 
Whomever took the photo of this report and leaked it will be some in major hot water internally, up to termination.

Yes, I was shocked by that - - and even more shocked that 98.5 fm read it out over my car radio this afternoon - - including his home address.

Not sure you are right about his contract. Right now, he has the 13th highest cap hit for a WR in 2026. That isn't overpaying for a guy who is coming off a 1,000 yard season in a year he was returning from an ACL tear and playing his best football at the end of the season.

Assuming he isn't found guilty, the Pats could redo his deal just to get his cap # down to get more flexibility, but his contract is reasonable next year. It is a lot of base salary ($20 million), but the cap hit is fine for his production.
 
This reeks of a money grab. The story happened 2 weeks earlier, why wait 2 weeks? The story makes no sense. Why would he hit her? Why would he choke her with the crook of his arm, then just stop and say “thought so”?
Why is there no proof of injury and if he smacked her across the face why would she say her chest was red but nothing about her face?

It’s ridiculous how easy it is to just make something up and cause carer damage to someone, assuming that’s what happened here.

That could open Pandora's box for lawsuits.
 
AB is a cautionary tale for everyone.

And so is Irving Fryar. He got himself jailed years after he retired.

Part of it is, we're all getting older. Our way of living and coping when we were younger don't work anymore. We each have to grow, learn and change.

My observation is, for star NFL wide receivers, it's harder for them than most other people. I think Chris Carter was a good egg for proactively reaching out to help them. We look and feel like we can't be compassionate because of all they're being paid, but it's not about the money.

OT: I saw Just saw these at Target. They look good.
Why are you assuming he did what he is accused of? There appears to be zero proof.
